What tranny for a 318?

Ok, the longest would be from 29 palms, to Newport beach. 2-2:30 hour drive depending on the shitty 91 freeway traffic, you know, like weekender trip to the beach. I'm more than willing to pay for gas. Also palm springs about every other weekend cause the woman likes the mall. About an 1:30 drive at least.

I'd like best of both worlds. comfortable freeway travel. But I don't wanna give up any stoplight racing power, lol ya know? So maybe the 3:73 ratio? idk yet about my tires. I'll post the sizes I'm gonna use tomorrow.

Also would it be ideal to build the 904? Or maybe just a good reversed shift kit for the automatic so I can control my shifting at the lights.? heh.
